  1. I bought Call Of Juarez: Gunslinger at Gamestop a couple years ago, and there was nothing but a download code in the box. Typically though games that only have a DDL code in the box say so on the cover.
  2. I played basketball. My school was so small that the only sports we had were basketball and baseball. No wrestling, track, or even football. I was on the quiz bowl team though. For those who don't know what that is, it's like Jeopardy, but with a 4 person team.
  3. I'm the only hockey fan in my lineage. Everyone else is into NBA, NFL, and MLB. Everyone thought it was weird that I'm a hockey fan. But it appeals to me naturally. Also I'm drawn to the Detroit Red Wings, despite having never been to Detroit or even Michigan for that matter.
  4. I've walked over coals. It's mind over matter. Prepare your mind, and you can do it and not feel anything.
  5. Didn't you already post this?
  6. Heat makes me pass out, and not in a good way. Hence, I keep the house between 65° and 70° in the house. Any warmer than that, and I can't sleep or function. I sweat as if I'm working out in the fires of Hell. I'm a winter baby in every sense of the word. I was born on a day in January when there was ice covering the roads.
  7. Narcissism. I never understood why or how people would worship themselves. I've met several and pretty much told them they were pathetic losers, but were too stupid to realize it. Everyone can (and will) be egotistical a few times in their life. But as long as that ego isn't overinflated, then I see no problem. Nobody's perfect, despite what these morons think. I'm a bitch, but I sure as hell don't worship myself. I have better things to do with my time than kiss my own ass.
  8. Elon Musk is a complete pansy. He has way too much money, and now he's turning Twitter into another Truth Social. Before long, he's going to make Adolf the VP of the company so he can do whatever the hell he wants with it. That's my prediction anyway.
  9. The year is 1880. The Wild West is still wild. There is no electricity or indoor plumbing. Outlaw gangs are common. Survival is often commonly drives people to outlawry. If you could live back then, would you? I absolutely would. A dream of mine is to have a simple one room cabin with a fireplace with a chimney. No electricity or plumbing. The fireplace for light, heat, and cooking. I’ve always dreamed of living 100+ years ago. The modern age sucks.
  10. Stroked my hair. He thought it was romantic to play with my hair and wouldn’t stop until I kicked him in the balls. I told him repeatedly to get his hands off me, but apparently when a woman stands up for herself, she’s just playing hard-to-get. 😡
  11. RDR2 should have been on this list.
  12. I'm pretty sure everyone here will agree with me on this, but I think it's a great thing. However, the reason I'm asking this is because I have seen tons of gamers ditch their games and systems when a new one comes out. For example when the N64 came out, there was a kid in my math class that was selling off all his SNES games and console to get money for the N64. He had raved about Mario RPG and Blackthorne for 2 years. Then all of a sudden he didn't want them anymore because a new system was out. Now we have systems that are reverse compatible. PS2 to PS1. PS3 to PS2(originally) to PS1. Xbox One to Xbox 360. Wii to Gamecube. ANd so many others. SO I'm wondering why. Why would you abandon the games you loved because a new system is out, even if it's reverse compatible? Is it a status thing? you can still play them, just the console has changed. And if you had a game you were working on and were worried about losing it because you got the new one, you can just upload it to the cloud and then download it to the new system. I know some see reverse compatibility as pointless and useless. The reasoning I hear most is wondering why anyone would play previous games when "newer and better" games are coming out. That's not necessarily true. Newer, obviously. Better not sure about that. I play a lot of PS4 games, most notably RDR2. And I still play them on my PS5. It's just weird to me that when a new system comes out, that some think they need to get rid of everything they previously enjoyed when they can just keep playing it on the new one. I know there was a lot of heat towards the PS4 for it not being reverse compatible. Which was stupid in my opinion. Yet some said there was no reason for it to be. So is it pointless and useless in your opinion, or a great thing? Should it just be to the previous system, or encompass more? Should the Series X be able to run games from the original Xbox? Should the PS5 be able to run games from all the previous PlayStation consoles? If the answer to that is no, then why do people abandon games from the previous system when they get the new one?
  13. Nay Goblin Sword
  14. It's been forever since I watched The Hobbit movies so I can't really comment there. The LOTR movies however, are masterful and amazing. The only possible rival they could have is the original Star Wars trilogy.
  15. I've watched them several times, and their comments are often funny as hell. The way they point out and debunk so many YouTube videos and movies is really interesting. I wish I had the ability to explain shit the way they do.
  16. 1. Do you flirt with other people either online or IRL, or perhaps both? No I do not. I'm simply not interested. 2. Has your flirting ever been taken seriously where the person actually thought you wanted to be with them? A few times. However, that was a long time ago. 3. Is it okay to flirt with other people while you're in a committed relationship? Absolutely not. You're in a COMMITTED relationship for a reason. If you're wanting to do that kind of shit with other people, it's NOT a committed relationship and not to be taken as such in any way at any time.
  17. Considering my first post was about modern systems, I want to reiterate that I'm a classic gamer. So there's a lot of games I play that are limited to those systems. I highly doubt we'll see Battletoads, Ghouls 'N Ghosts, or Conker's Bad Fur Day on any current gen systems. So my real interest lies in systems that predate PlayStation and Xbox.
  18. I get what you're saying, but the disc capable systems can do the exact same thing as the digital ones can do. Whether or not you have any interest in physical media or not, the disc capable systems at least offer you the option. There's no mandate to use it. Personally I see digital systems as limiting and "crippling" if you will. In my eyes they cut down the possible amount of games that you can play. Like I said there could be a lot of games that are only released on physical media, and not digitally. Since the disc capable version can do digital just as good, if not better than the digital, I really can't understand getting the digital. With the exception of cheddar. If that's the issue, then I can see it. But it still doesn't make sense to me. And like I said, you may have a game on PS4 that you loved, but since you went digital, you have to buy it a second time if you want to continue to be able to play it. And this is coming from someone who literally has 124 DDL's on her Switch. But it's still cartridge capable.
  19. Several CoD games were released for the DS. There were others that were on other handheld systems I'm sure. Since DS got the games, I know things like PSP and PS Vita had them. I just didn't think to look and see which systems have the games since we're talking about the DS at the moment. That all said, I just don't see the Switch being powerful enough to run the game. It has only grown more and more massive since its inception, and the Switch hardware isn't exactly the most powerful on the market. It's more or less a glorified Game Boy. Fun as hell yes. But not a beast in any form. I'm sure there are people who can hack the system itself, and put in more powerful processors and whatnot. But as soon as Nintendo finds them they press charges. So good luck finding anything from the current generation systems from Nintendo that can handle the games.
  20. The attachment you’re referring to is the Light Boy. I remember that thing be damn near a requirement unless you were playing under direct sunlight. Even with the lamps on it, you could still barely see it. Even the GBA wasn’t backlit. They didn’t do that until the GBASP. And you’re definitely spot on about the damn batteries. If you didn’t use a lot of rechargeable batteries, you were going to spend more in batteries within the first six months of owning the damn thing than the machine itself cost. It’s the ONLY reason I game on a GBASP instead of the classic GB. It uses a charge cord instead of six digits for an hour of use.
  21. After watching the trailer again, I'm just wondering: Does anyone else get Outlast vibes?
  22. I did a search but couldn't find a topic like this. What does everyone think here? Personally, I say always go for the disc capable version of a console as opposed to a strictly digital version. The disc capable versions of a system do absolutely the exact same things the digital version does, with the added bonus of being able to run a disc is you so choose. One thought is that there is the possibility of a game you want being exclusively disc. If you digital, you would be shit out of luck. Even if you never buy a disc for any reason, at least you have the option. Isn't it better to have too much than not enough? And what about your games from the previous system? Do you want to have to buy the game again, or be able to use the same disc that you already have? It just seems both smarter and wiser to go with a disc capable version of a system to me.
  23. The Series X is in no way compact. If you want an idea of its size, go look at a concrete block. It's only slightly smaller than that, but still pretty damn close.
  24. Tell Me Why would definitely get my vote. It's an amazing game, and the story is just beautiful.
  25. What's stopping you? I play on mine all the time. I'm a classic gamer and play systems from the N64 back. Yes I do have a PS5, but it's mostly for RDR2. I have several PS4 games I play on that, but don't touch it anywhere near as much as I play my NES, SNES, N64, PS1, Sega Genesis, Atari 2600, and Game Boy.
